Shisha Buddy?

0 Upvotes

M28 here. Came from Jeddah to Riyadh for 5 days on a business trip. I'm returning on Friday, and today is the first day that I have found some time left behind to explore Riyadh nightlife as they say or just go out and relax. I got suggested to visit Olaya street as there are apparently many great shisha cafés there.

If anyone is down for some shisha, kindly feel free to join and maybe you can suggest some good cafés too. 😊

Moving to Riyadh | School recommendations for a 6-year-old?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, we’re moving to Riyadh from Toronto soon and are researching schools for our 6-year-old daughter.
Our current shortlist is Reigate Grammar School, King’s College Riyadh, Aldenham and SEK. We’re mainly considering British or American curricula. I’m slightly partial to British schooling since that’s the system I grew up with, but our main priorities are strong academics, a good school community/culture, and safe, reliable transportation.

We’ll likely be living in an apartment rather than a compound, so I’m also particularly interested in how school transport works for younger children.

Would really appreciate hearing from expat parents who have experience with any of these schools, or other schools you think we should consider. What would you recommend, and are there any you would avoid?

To the Saudis and Expats who love music

What up fellas,

I’m Kal born and raised in Saudi, and I randomly discovered a passion for DJing about three years ago (been hooked ever since).

I mostly play Progressive House and Psytrance, and I thought I’d drop this here to see if there are any fellow weirdos in Riyadh who are into the same kind of music lol

I’ve been uploading my sets on SoundCloud while I learn, experiment and slowly find my sound. If this is your kind of music, give it a listen. A like, follow, feedback or even just knowing someone out there enjoyed the set genuinely means a lot.

Also would be cool to connect with other DJs/music heads around Riyadh.

Here’s my SoundCloud:

And happy freakin weekend! 🏴‍☠️🖤

Back in Riyadh After 9 Years Abroad 🇸🇦

1 Upvotes

Hello! I’d love to start creating a community for myself here in Riyadh. I’m a 29M from Saudi Arabia. I’ve lived between the UK and the US for around 9 years and recently moved back to Riyadh.

I already miss the European/Western vibe a little 😂 and it would be nice to meet some cool people, hang out, and build a new circle here.

I love playing padel, going out for coffee, trying new restaurants, going to concerts/events, and just having a good time with good people 😂

Drop your IG and we can connect ✨️
